Think Tank Tuesday 9/20: Is The Restroom A Privilege Or A Right?

If your child came home and told you they had to earn bathroom time would you be okay with that or would you find fault with it? Today's question for the think tank is should students have to earn the privilege of using the bathroom? One teacher thinks so check out this story:


[A mother in Texas is up in arms over a dysfunctional classroom rewards system in her son’s class. The teacher of the class gives the children fake currency as a reward for good behavior. The fake currency can then buy her students certain privileges, one of which is using the bathroom. After her 7-year-old son wet himself in class, Sonja Cross is outraged.

The fake currency is known as “Boyd Bucks” at J.O. Davis Elementary in Irving, Texas. Cross’ son did not have enough Boyd Bucks to go to the bathroom and tried his hardest to hold it in. After his efforts failed he urinated in class. Cross’ son has been teased by other children as a result of this incident.]source

What are your thoughts? Was the teacher wrong to make students buy their bathroom time? Should the teacher be reprimanded for making their student wet themselves in class? Should using the restroom be privilege instead of a student's right?

So many people hit me off with their projects I thought it would only be fair to share their material and have it critiqued by my readers. My only warning is there may or may not be some extremely wack stuff here, but on the other hand you might come across the next big thing; so be patient and fair. After you check things out, let me know what you think. Leave a comment below, or send me a tweet letting me know if the project is a smash or if it's trash. Then go let the artist know and tell them Big Jye sent ya! The whole point is to give the artists some feedback on their work. Let's go!

Think Tank Tuesday 9/13: Dressed Too Sexy To Teach?

source: instagram.com/triceyl__

Things have certainly changed since I was in school -- technology, lack of art & music programs and how teachers look. Some may not believe it but the picture to the right is of a 4th grade teacher. 

Most of my teachers from elementary right through high school looked like they were auditioning for the part of the Wicked Witch of the West -- daily. Today's kids just don't know how fortunate they are to have teachers that actually look like people but I digress. 

Today's Think Tank conversation starter is about the beautiful sister in the picture who's the subject of a heated debate. Patrice "Tricey" Brown set the internet on fire overnight when it discovered that such a beautiful specimen was an elementary teacher in Atlanta (yeah I know, I feel cheated too). While no one is crazy (or blind) enough to deny she's beautiful the actual negative attention is towards her choice of clothing for the classroom. It's deemed as too form fitting and sexy. 

Motivational Mondays 9/12: Keep Fighting

Watch the video, share with a friend and enjoy this beautiful Monday:
